ATKIN "The White Rice"

The White Rice

Style: Dreadnought | Series: 37

This very special Historic Series guitar is a loving recreation of Tony Rice’s infamous D28, a guitar previously owned by Clarence White, hence its name – The White Rice! With its instantly recognisable enlarged soundhole and overhanging fretboard, the original guitar is generally agreed to be one of the best sounding D28s in existence. We set out to build a no-compromise Dreadnought that would honour this exceptional guitar and its legendary owners.

While our regular Sitka spruce and East Indian rosewood Dreadnought packs plenty of power, sustain and projection, this guitar is something else. Thanks in part to the oversized soundhole, which lets more air in and out of the guitar, The White Rice combines incredible power – in Alister’s words, “it sounds like a cannon!” – with an openness and resonance that is unique. Accurate in every detail, from the 45mm nut to the detailed custom relic finish, this is not just the ultimate White/Rice tribute but, perhaps, the ultimate Dreadnought.

ATKIN "Pre War D-37 Aged" HARDCASE

 

D37 Pre War Aged

Aged finish Atkin D37 Pre War, featuring a Adirondack Spruce top with Madagascan Rosewood back and sides, 1 11/16" nut width, a 25.4" scale length and vintage V neck. The most popular steel-string guitar of all time, the dreadnought is a design classic. The Atkin Dreadnought is based on the classic pre-war models of the 1930s. They’ve been building and repairing this style of guitar longer than any other and, as with the J-45, every vintage example they’ve worked on has taught them something different. With its deep body and scalloped braces, the Atkin Dreadnought puts out an incredibly strong, full sound. It’s one of the biggest sounding guitars they make and it really stands out when played alongside other instruments, live or in the studio.
